+ The reason for the white is technical - cannot use the API in the sandboxed app (Kendy)
+ Actually in the newer macOS, the look changed, but LibreOffice still uses the old look (Jay)
+ We try to look as a native application (Kendy)
+ But we don’t have to (Jay)
+ The easiest would be to do a uniform color (Jay)
+ Would be good to add screenshots of some contemporary macOS apps, to mimic the look better (Kendy)
+ Will ask Steve (Jay)
